    DRT Terminal Shock Load Data

    I am getting an average of around .927in which is really short although they do claim them to be very short for caliber. I just received them and have not determined an OAL yet.

    DRT Terminal Shock Load Data

    Has anyone loaded up any of the 95gr 6mm terminal shocks? I just got some to load for my .243win and this will be my first time developing a load and I'm a little unsure as to where to start as there is no book data for these. I have some H4350 that I am going to start with. This is probably a...

    Tikka "Rokslide Special", let's see 'em

    My Rokslide Special I just put together and shot for the first time. T3x in .243win 1:8 twist with a SWFA 3-9x (courtesy of the classifieds) and Sportsmatch T084. Gave it a rather aggressive free float and put a vertical grip on it. Very pleased with the rifle in my limited testing so far. Shot...

    Looking good! I gave mine a pretty aggressive free float and added a vertical grip. Shot it for the first time yesterday and am pleased so far. The trigger is the best I've felt out of the box and accuracy seems promising. Mine seemed to like the 80gr TTSX quite well. Didn't get to shoot it as...

    Right on, I haven't gotten to shoot mine yet. Mounting up an SWFA 3-9x in some Sportsmatch rings today and shooting on Saturday so if everything goes to plan I'll update here. Still collecting components to load the 95gr Terminal Shock from DRT so I'll be breaking it in with factory stuff for now.

    Is this on the Guide Lite MT frame or older Guide Lite? If it's on the MT I will take it. I messaged you as well. Thanks

    Yes, wow my mistake .243win. Somehow neglected to include that important piece of info. Sorry about that.

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    For what it's worth to anyone following this thread I pulled the trigger (no pun intended) on a Tikka Superlite .243win 1:8 twist. I went this route due to low recoil, the option to shoot DRT Terminal Shock projectiles and the high velocity to drive traditional factory copper offerings in the...

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    That's great to hear. I was hoping to go with a Tikka or something of similar price/weight/quality if possible and haven't found many options that fit that criteria in 6cm unless I'm missing something which is entirely possible. The savages and the Ruger american are the only two I see that come...

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    Thanks for the response. This confirms the route I've all but decided to take which is to buy a 1:8 twist .243, invest time and money into reloading and likely rebarrel to 6mm Creed down the line if/when I burn out the barrel. Also, how have the hammer hunters performed for you terminally? I...

    That is probably true, I'm sure this won't be my last rifle. Leaning more and more this way after analyzing the numbers as the performance of the .243 seems more than adequate for my purposes and at the lowest recoil with good ammo availability. The numbers are certainly impressive for the...

    Help choosing ideal chambering/rifle to shoot lead free projectiles.

    Sorry to bump this but I am still undecided and am wondering what the consensus is between a 1:8 .243win and a 6.5cm for my use case? I intend on trying the DRT ammo/bullets in either. The advantages I see for the .243win are recoil and velocity in the event that the DRT aren't available for...

    I'm leaning towards this in a 6.5cm now. I saw your post on the 6.5 thread in the past and was impressed but didn't pay close enough attention to realize the DRT was a lead free projectile. Very glad I posted here for help. Now I can build a Tikka "Rokslide Super Special" of my own lol
